'The highs are very high, the lows deeper than you can imagine': Rio Ferdinand hails Manchester United's improved form after rout of Leipzig as Paul Scholes claims Ole Gunnar Solskjaer would've been 'scared to death' by his side's 6-1 mauling to Spurs

Rio Ferdinand has heaped praise on former club Manchester United as the Red Devils legend hailed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side for recovering their form after a poor start to the season.

The United boss's job had been under severe pressure after the international break, with the 6-1 hammering at home to Tottenham Hotspur putting the Norwegian's place in the dugout at risk.

However, four points from a possible six against Newcastle and Chelsea, alongside impressive back-to-back wins in Europe over Paris Saint-Germain and RB Leipzig has onset a wave of optimism around the club.
